拍品专文

Renowned for his portraits, Ren Bonian first studied painting under his father Ren Shenghe when he was young. Later he became a student of Ren Xun and Ren Xiong, where he eventually acquired a lighthearted and authentic artistic style unique in his painting. The present lot is a classic portrait by the artist, with a facial expression painted entirely in the boneless technique. Ren painted portraits for
many of his friends and contemporaries, such as Wu Changshuo, Zhou Wen, Ren Xun, Xu Gu, and Yang Xian. We cannot ascertain who is the subject of the current painting. However, based on the inscription, Yunfeng is likely a retired government official who emanates an authoritative yet relaxed spirit.
